Have made it to the 800 mile mark.  Still having fun and enjoying the hobo life. Had a bit of a scare recently with some bad knee pain but after some vitamin I (ibuprofen) and a day off i was back to feeling good. Weather is getting warmer and more bugs. The miles and effort is starting to wear on people. In the last two weeks 7 people in our close realm have called it quits.

All is well here on APFARM. Cold Spring. Lot's of rain. Keep up the good work. Mark thinks that you are starting to look like Forrest Gump. When you get to Maine we will take you out to dinner.
